Last entry for June

Hello world!

How is Thursday treating you so far? I hope that all is going well for you as it is for me. The "Strip Search" website is all cleaned up and I'm loving it! Can't help but to look at all of those HOT guys, especially when you go to the website too damn much... Well, I have to give a shout out to my girl Niya for being herself. I have one more day to go before my fun filled Fourth of July weekend, where after tomorrow night, I will have a three day weekend. WOO-HOO!

As for other news, I have to take out a lot of money for my weekend festivities, hee hee hee! Get a couple of CDs, go to the Taste of Chicago, and finally go to the Chinatown area of Chicago. I will shop until I drop myself dead! And hopefully I'll be asking Niya to join me on my adventures this weekend. I am one step closer to finding out as to which martial arts school I'll be going to so that I can get in top shape and shed the unwanted pounds. Interesting, eh?

One of the CDs that I will be getting is the new Missy Elliot album which features the the track "Lose Control" featuring Ciara and Fat Man Scoop. The other one will be entirely up to me, yay for me! :) I have to get the "necessities" for the party, such as the paper plates and bowls, plastic utensils, and napkins for the party! Not bad, eh? I have to get going now so that I can get to work on time. I will report again on Tuesday of next week. Laterz and peace!

I am one tired lady and more updates...

Hello world!

How is today treating you so far? I hope that all is going well with you as it is for me. I have some good news and I have some bad news to share to all of you today... This brand of news actually blends together... I have to break the news to my ex-roommate Ray that I found another buyer for the smaller TV/VCR combo/DVD Player/RF Modulator set for $50, which just so happens to be my co-worker Andre. Thank goodness that I found someone that will buy it from me for a good price AND that has reliable transportation to get to my place like right away.

Now, on to other news. When I arrived to work last night I found that my lock was gone, but I'm not sweating a thing because I have a back up lock from Mr. David Gilbert. And to make matters better, none of my stuff was gone. :) I am going to be good on my word to both Laura Talamantes (she is a sweetheart) and to Mike Timko (I owe him a Gatorade for holding my things) as I have what they are looking for. But other than that, I am tired as hell, just don't ask me how I got to be that way today. I have some info to give to Gregg tomorrow and to get the stuff for the party the same day as well.

Damn it, I forgot to call both Jennifer and David! How much does that suck?!? I am going to the Taste of Chicago on the 3rd of July and that is that. WELL... I have to get going now so that I can get to other things in my life. I will try to report again later on this week. Laterz and peace!

Is it hot in here or is it just me????

Hello world!

How is Monday treating you so far? I hope that all is going well for you as it is for me! I was just getting done with looking at the website for the show "Strip Search" and I need me a fan (the one you use to cool yourself down), as those guys are H-O-T! I can't really put it down in words how I feel. I want to go to where they're going to perform and see a part of history. And although he has a son with an ex-wife, Brian from that show looks soooooooooooo good, it's as if I want him for myself! :) But you have to respect him for what he believes, however...

ON TO OTHER UPDATES! My Buddhist meeting yesterday was all good, as I was the emcee of the meeting (I used my humor there), plus my house warming party is this Saturday so I have my responses saying that they'll come to the party, so that is all good. Now with the information about the Wushu classes in Evanston at hand in terms of prices and all that, I have to now give the info to Gregg and see what will be next up in the agenda of that kind. But if it doesn't work out to my favor, oh well, at least I tried.

As for anything else, I was featured in the latest issue of the Pioneer Press papers for the second time in terms of being photographed but the third time overall. Why, do you ask? Well, I was working at UPS, that's all. Nothing new for me there, because the first time was in the January 15, 1998 issue of the Evanston Review when I was a sophomore at ETHS (I have to go to the Evanston Library to get the proof of that), hee hee hee! Well, I have to get going now so that I can get to other things. I will report again later on this week. Laterz and peace!

Newly single, the Taste of Chicago, and more updates

Hello world!

How is Sunday treating you so far? I hope that all is going well with you as it is for me. As I am newly single, I am done with dating for the time being, therefore if Brad ever asks me to give him one more try I'll be letting him have it by him kissing my Irish ass and get the fuck lost for what he did to me and to Laura Phillips! And now to other news for the day. The Taste of Chicago is going on right now and I am a little angry... why, do you ask? One of my idols of all time, Donna Summer is going to be at the Taste of Chicago this upcoming Tuesday and I will be at work! How much does that shit suck?!? As for my housewarming party, it's this Saturday, at the same time that Carlos Santana is going to be performing at the Taste of Chicago, so this should be interesting to see. Well, I have to get going now so that I can get to other things in my busy life. I will report again on Friday. Laterz and peace!

Party updates...

Hello world!

How is Wednesday treating you far? I hope that all is going well as it is for me. I am now SINGLE AGAIN, as I pretty much dumped Brad for his involvement with Miss Laura Phillips, so to all the hot single guys, hit me with some good pick up lines... I have heard a lot of them before but I am looking for something better... But other than that, My girl Niya should be coming to my housewarming party on July 2. I have so much to talk about with her as I haven't seen her since I left the homeless shelter in the West Side of the city. I'll try to call Jennifer Sutton again this weekend to talk and to catch up with her again, as I have me more of that during the day freetime but not enough of the evening/night freetime. As for other highlights since I last wrote, I am still making payments to my Profina program on time and it looks like that I will be out of debt in early 2007. Well, I have to get going now so that I can get back to the Church Street house to talk to Gregg and to get the $10 back from Travis. I will report again sometime this weekend. Laterz and peace!

Happy Father's Day and more updates!

Hello world!

How is the Father's Day treating you so far? I hope that all is going well with you as it's not really the case for me. I for one sent my dad a really nice Father's Day card and a T-shirt in the mail and he even thanked me by e-mail today! That's the good part of my day today. The bad part (for my soon to be ex, not me, as I move on quickly) is that I will be breaking up with Brad (formerly known as Abe), for good this time, partly because he takes advantage of girls like me, as Jennifer warned me last year (thank you very much Jennifer)...

BUT... however, the main reason is because I found out that he spent the night at Laura Phillips' new apartment (although she said nothing happened, I don't believe her) one night a couple of weeks ago and he didn't let anyone know about it (especially me) as he was thought to be gone camping. So I have my evidence on the ready so that I can confront him about it. He can deny it all that he fucking wants but if it's out of Laura's mouth than he's clearly cheating on me... duh! So Brad, don't play fucking stupid... I clearly got your ass...

Here comes the worst part: my case manager and his case manager (who used to be the same as mine before I moved) both say that they're happy that he's doing so much (thank you Chris) when in reality he might be driving himself back into the hospital. He did that at least twice late last year, two of those times were about a month into each other, That's where everyone else is worried shitless about him and what he's doing to himself and to everyone else around him. When he finally realizes about this shit, he shouldn't be surprised when he finds that I'm not around anymore. I refuse to allow a guy like that take advantage of me.

Now back to the good stuff. I have my nine-ten people coming to my crib for my housewarming party... Beth, Niya (if she can make it), Loris, Velma, Linda, Amy B., Hiroko, Genevieve, David G. (if he has the invitation), and Jennifer (if she'll be in town). Those are the people that I trust completely and that is that. To anyone that wants to send me something, let me know. So if anyone that didn't like the fact that I didn't invite you to the party, FOR ANY REASON, FUCK YOU TO HELL! Well, I have to get going now so that I can get to other things. I will report again later on this week. Laterz and peace!

A few updates...

Hello world!

How is Wednesday treating you so far? I am doing just fine, and I hope that it is the same for you too! :) To update you on some events, I have indeed sent all that I could find in terms of my school stuff (I owe money to Oakton) to my employer for tuition payment. Work is going okay as I am getting paid on Friday. I am having a party (a housewarming one) on July 2. A few people are coming for sure so that's good. Well, I have to get going now so that I can get to my meeting with Gregg on time. I will try to report again tomorrow if not sometime this weekend. Laterz and peace!

Hey there!

Hello world!

How is Monday treating you so far? Well... For me, it's nothing but good times and hot ass weather here in the Chicago inland area of Illinois so far. I managed to get some sunburn this past weekend while attending a cook out but hey it was all good. My cousin Jaime (a girl) did indeed reply to a message that I sent out to her and her two older sisters Jennifer and Katie, but I have yet to look at it. I do hope that all is going well with her and the other two as well as their parents, but who would I be to assume that sort of judgment? Oh wait a minute, I just did! But other than that, I paid up all of my dues and that is all good. Well, I have to get going now so that I can get to other things. I will report again later on this week with more updates. Laterz and peace!

Just a short entry...

Hello world!

How is Monday treating you so far? I hope that all is going well for you, although I might be single again soon as I might dump Brad (again)... but who cares about that?!? There are far better looking and much nicer and more respectful guys that I saw on both "Strip Search" and "Kept," both on VH1, and one of them just so happened to catch my eye. His name is Brian, he's on the show "Strip Search," and OMG, does he look FINE! Too bad he's not a Chicagoan like me, but who cares about that, he looks sooooooooooooooooo good to me! :) If Brad gets jealous, why should I care when there is something that I posted here a while back that should be noticed? Well I have to get going now. I will report again tomorrow or Wednesday. Laterz and peace!

There is a lot going on...

Hello world!

Since I last wrote to you, there's been a lot going on. Yeah, Brad and I are dating in some ways, but we're not in other ways. The guy thinks he has a lot of respect for me, but when you use someone else's bathroom WITHOUT permission (My apartment has the 1.5 bathrooms, and he should have known better and just asked me to use my bathroom, however, I would have said no anyway; after all, he IS almost 25...) you have: 1) more likelihood to steal what is there, 2) use what the other person has used already (like the antibacterial soap that I use), and 3) more likelihood to trash what is there. Now is that a royal pain in the fucking ass or what? He's a good guy, that I know, and he looks like "The One," but he needs some growing up to do and, on top of that, I need a good long talk with him on mannerisms and whatnot. But other than that, I am doing good, because I finally got my grades and I need to make some payments to Oakton and whatnot. I have to get going now so that I can get on with my day and whatnot. I will report again on Tuesday or tomorrow. Laterz and peace!

First entry for June!

Hello world!

How is thee right now? I hope all is going well for you as it is for me. As of a short while ago, I shipped out a package to my dad, which is a t-shirt and a Father's Day card. Not much, but it's a start for me there. I am still in a tight hole when it comes to my money, I just have to find my stuff for school as I flunked my Biology class while I got my A in Humanities class. Everything balanced out for me, and I am still in good academic standing at Oakton. But other than that, I am back together with Abe (now known as Brad), and it is going good right now, so take that Jason! :) I gave an experience at my Buddhist meeting on this past Sunday to prove my practice really works and it got a really good reception too! Amy said that she'll call me and bring Genevieve over to chant with me, but as I am gone on Saturday mornings to do laundry, we'll see what happens there. I am having my housewarming party on the Fourth of July weekend (July 2nd) so whoever I invite should bring me stuff. Well, I have to get going now so that I can get to work on time. I will report again on Sunday. Laterz and peace!
